    I gotta hand it to you, kid, you’re the perfect specimen why communities like fuck cars exist, and why nothing is changing.

    Even presented with a fucking wishing well you cannot come up with anything but “CAaAaR”, because your imagination spans from wall to wallpaper.

    You could have imagined and wished for e.g. a working infrastructure of cargo bike sharing, but nope!, car it is!

    You don’t understand why people hate cars, you’re part of the reason people hate cars.

    I don’t have money, I don’t make money, so I couldn’t get an Uber/Lyft/Taxi (Not to mention that we don’t have taxis where I live).

    Ah, a car is free, of course, it just drops out of nowhere and runs on unicorn dust. Tonight, please ask mommy and daddy what they’re paying for their car(s). Full cost: down payment, monthly payments, fuel, repairs, insurance, loss of value, everything.

    I’m gonna tl;dr it for you: if you cannot afford a taxi/uber/whatever even once, you cannot afford a car. There, that was easy, wasn’t it?

    I ruled a bike out as an option as I CANNOT take a bike onto a school bus, so I can get to school.

    I thought the printer was just 3 miles away? Did it ever occur to you you could have just gone home, pick up the cargo bike, ride the 3 miles to the printer which literally takes 10 minutes and pick it up?
